Do we still jog? Dr. R. S. Murali
The statement "the only thing permanent is change" needs to undergo a change right
now. All of us know that unless we renew ourselves quite often we will become
obsolete. The reason for this is that while the statement definitely reflects the idea that
change is important, it does not seem to take into account the rate of the change.
The speed with which the changes are taking place today is unimaginable. It is stated
that innovations indicate the rate of evolution.
Inventions marking the innovations denote the evolution of man. For several
centuries there were not many inventions (read innovations) and the time was
really moving slowly with literally no changes in the quality of life of one
generation and the next. In the last century the world has changed faster than
the last few thousand years. Currently one calendar year contributes
innovations equivalent to several centuries, and the pace is increasing.
All these indicate the speed with which we need to catch up. When I say „we‟, I
mean the people who are supposed to do intellectual work (professionals). Let
us look at some of the following:
In the last one year, how many new concepts have we learnt?
What are the areas in which we think we continue to be an expert?
What are the new skill sets we have acquired to rollout our ideas?
What are the ways in which we have changed the way we have been working?
Has there been any changes in the time we have allotted for professional development vis-a-vis the time we
have for our personal work?
Have we thought about any new skill sets we need to acquire in order to enhance our professional success?
Are we clear about how we will be using technology to enhance our service delivery?
These are some of the preliminary and basic questions we need to ask ourselves. If for most of the questions our
answer is not in the affirmative, we need to look at ourselves. We have an issue, particularly because we are in the field
of adding intellectual value to our clients. We need to travel faster than the industry, we need to be ahead of others both
in terms of quality and quantity. If not we will still be jogging while others are running. Are we running or are we still
jogging?

Being authentic
Rekha Murali
(As published in „The Hindu—opportunities‟ dated October 17, 2012)
Being authentic defines living your life in an honest way,
in tune with your values, beliefs and goals.
The Oxford dictionary defines the word „authentic‟ as
„known to be real and genuine‟. In the workplace, it
refers to your genuine behavioural patterns and those of
your colleagues. It is very easy to be authentic with near
and dear ones without any fear, but what happens at the
workplace? With your boss or colleagues, you want to
be accepted and liked and hence play a role to fit in.
Although you may feel accepted by the group, are you
being true to your inner self?
You may feel confined and unreal. What happens when
you listen to your inner calling and try to be genuine?
There may be some initial resistance from your
co-workers or boss, who may have different
perspectives, but a
genuine person is
always respected and
accepted in the long
run. To be authentic,
you should not wear a
mask and be artificial
at the workplace.
So how can one be authentic? Although it may seem
unconventional and a little difficult to follow, being
genuine is more rewarding than not being so. Authentic
behaviour helps develop integrity, confidence and
self-esteem. When you are sincere and genuine, you
are able to recognise and face problems in an honest
way making it easier to arrive at solutions. Since none
can have a rigid personality, what is required is a flexible
attitude that helps you seize each opportunity that life
brings along to change and grow.
Focus on values: Focus on values that are important to
you and cultivate them. This helps you set clear
personal and professional goals. When there is clarity
about values and goals, you normally tend to be on the
right path taking the right decisions that help the team
and the organisation.
Be honest: At the workplace, communicate clearly and
with honesty to prevent any misunderstanding. You
need to say exactly what you mean in a respectful and
polite way, keeping in mind the feelings of the persons
involved. Gaps and hints in communication are never a
good substitute for honest feedback, comments or
opinions.
Avoid being judgmental: Being open and accepting
others and their opinions helps you have an open-mind,
which in turn helps you avoid jumping to quick
a s s u m p t i o n s .
This leads to a
healthy, genuine
relationship with
co-workers.
Check your
emotions: Being
authentic also
means controlling
your emotions as
you need to
r espec t and
consider the needs of others. You cannot upset the ap-
ple-cart just because you are angry with someone.
Try to look from the other person‟s point of view and see
if their perspective is different and beneficial.
Question yourself: To check your level of authenticity,
here is a checklist which can be done only if you are
honest with yourself.
Are you comfortable with the decisions you make at
work?
Do you feel loved and respected in the work
environment?
Are you giving your best to the job you are in?
Do you keep your promises?
Is your communication with your co-workers genuine?
Does your workplace make you happy?
Are you happy with your work?
If you have answered „yes‟ to most of these questions,
then go ahead and enjoy your work and relationship with
colleagues. Being authentic begins and ends with you. It
also motivates and develops authenticity in others. So,
be authentic and bring harmony into your life and into
the lives of others too!
You cannot be lonely if you like the
person you're alone with.
- Wayne Dyer

"Swamiji, I don't believe in God".
It was a young man, modern, tight pants, tobacco pipe
stuck at waist, trim thin moustache. He spoke English
with an Americanized drawl, and was evidently one of
our university products, with higher education abroad.
Sophisticated, to the points of his pointed toes.
Swamiji beamed. "Excellent!" With a broad welcoming
smile, nodding his head slowly, Swamiji continued:
"That's fine. I like you. You are the man I have wanted to
meet. I like your outspokenness. You are intelligent and
you think independently. You have the courage to speak
out your conviction, straight from the shoulder, as they
say. Now come, WHAT KIND of GOD is it that you don't
believe in?"
The young man, who had made his statement about his
non-believing, with a little hesitation, probably at his own
audacity at denying GOD before a God-man, was
pleasantly surprised at Swamiji's cordial tone and
benign smile, and, feeling encouraged, went on:
"This God, who sits above the clouds, and judges men,
and dispenses favours and punishments by
remote-control, at his own sweet will, don't you think
Swamiji, it is all hocus pocus?"
Swamiji laughed. "Shake hands, young man. I am en-
tirely with you. Now, we are two, together. I too, don't
believe in THAT KIND OF GOD. But........hmm, did you
have breakfast before coming?"
"Yes, Swamiji."
"Well, what did you have for breakfast?"
"The usual things, porridge, toast, scrambled eggs,
coffee...."
"Eggs. That's nice. Eggs! Now, where did the eggs
come from Ram, that's your name isn't it?"
Ram, with his brows raised, feeling that Swamiji was
leading upto something, said: " I don't exactly know,
probably one of those new poultry farms near Poona".
Swamiji: "I don't mean that. How are eggs made? Do
they grow in fields, or are they made in factories?"
"Simple. I think you are trying to pull my legs, but all the
same I'll answer you. Hens, of course. Hens lay eggs,
you know!" Ram said with an air of flippancy. Nodding
his head, up and down, thoughtfully, Swamiji Continued:
" I see, I see, so the eggs come from hens. Now where
do the hens come from?"
Ram, an intelligent man, could see the trap he was
being led into. He started saying: "Of course from.....".
Then wide eyed, looked at Swamiji silently. Swamiji
smiled: "So, eggs come from hens, hens come from
eggs, which again come from other hens, and so on,
ad-infinitum. Can you, Ram, say with any certainty,
which was the first cause? Egg or hen? How and why?
Swamiji, now
addressing all the
devotees present,
went on: "You see,
God is not just a
person or individ-
ual, sitting in a
palace above the
clouds, dispensing
favours. It stands
to reason that every effect must have had a cause prior
to it. The watch that you are wearing did not make itself.
Your breakfast did not cook itself. There was a cause, in
each case. The cause must have emerged from a
previous cause. GOD is now the first cause. The sole
cause. The UNCAUSED CAUSE. There was no cause
before Him. He is the oldest, the most ancient, He was
before TIME. The Sanaatanah, the Puraanah. This
`Causation hunting' is the favourite pastime of the
evolving human intellect -- trying to trace everything to
its ultimate origin. That which is beyond the point at
which the intellect gets stalled, is G-O-D. The intellect
cannot come to a conclusion as to the ultimate cause as
in the age - old example of the hen and the egg. `Thus
far -- not farther' is the limitation of the capacity of the
human intellect."
Ram was flushed with excitement. He was thrilled. In a
faltering voice he asked " There does seem to be
something in what you say, Swamiji. Am I to understand
that THAT is God?"
"That, which you now speak of as GOD, my boy, the
muslim calls Allah; the christian refers to as "My father in
Heaven"; the Parsee as Ahura Mazda. These are a few
of the different ways in which HE or IT is referred to, but
all are referring to the SAME SUPREME PRINCIPLE.
The cause behind all causes. The source of all that was,
now is, and ever will be. The Vedas refer to it as
BRAHMAN, the Absolute, the infinite. THE TRUTH IS
ONE. THE WISE SPEAK OF IT VARIOUSLY."
“But, Swamiji, the description does not seem to be
complete. Is that all that God is? How can one come to
know Him?"
You give but little when you give off your pos-
sessions. It is when you give off yourself
that you truly give.

“God is not just a person or
individual, sitting in a palace
above the clouds, dispensing
favours. It stands to reason
that every effect must have
had a cause prior to it.”
"Now, you are really getting somewhere. I have not
`described' God. He cannot be described. To define is
Him is to defile Him. What I pointed out only constitutes
one way, one manner, of approaching the Truth. It is just
one aspect. Now, Your second question asks `How can
one come to know Him?'
`Know him!' He cannot be `known' as you know this
table or this chair or your wife or your pipe. He is not an
object of the intellect. He is the VERY SUBJECT. Have
you heard of the great disciple of the Kenopanishad who
approached the Master and enquired:"Revered Sir,
What is IT, directed by which the mind cognizes objects,
the eyes see, the ears hear and so on?' The master
cryptically answered :"It is the eye of the eye; the ear of
the ear, the mind of the mind'. In fact It is the VERY
Subject that enables the eyes to see, the ear to hear etc.
It is not an object of the senses or the Mind or the
Intellect. Hence, to answer your question, I have to tell
you that you cannot make God an object of Knowledge.
An example will elucidate the idea. You are walking
along a dark country road at night, occasionally
illuminating your path with the aid of a battery torch; you
want to know how the torch gives light; you unscrew the
torch, you will not be able to see the battery cells, as the
bulb will not emit light unless powered by the battery of
cells. Similarly, the eyes, the ears, the mind and the
intellect, all of which get their own power to function from
the LIFE PRINCIPLE, cannot understand IT as an
object. God is thus conceived of as the life principle, in
every one."
The audience sat spell bound listening to Swamiji,
exposition of a difficult vedantic truth in easy lucid style.
"Then Swamiji, you say that God or Truth is something
abstract that cannot be seen or heard or touched -- or
even thought of. Am I right?"
“You are very much right. In fact, God is all this and
much more. The Bhagawad Geeta says: `Weapons
cleave It not; fire burns It not; water wets It not; wind
dries It not. This self cannot be cut, nor burnt nor wetted
nor dried.' It is not material; It is not matter, understand."
"Why did you `Self'?"
"The Supreme, Life Principle, is also the SELF in you, in
me and in everybody. It is the innermost core of your
personality. The popular misconception is that `man is a
body, with a soul'. That it is not correct. The Truth is that
`Man is THE SOUL, in a body'. He is eternal. The role of
the body is likened to a worn out garment that is dis-
carded by the wearer at his will."
Now, the other members of the audience who had been
listening with awe and reverence took the opportunity to
clear their doubts.
"Swamiji, if God cannot be seen or thought of, is an ab-
straction, is there any significance to idol worship?"
"Of course there is a lot. When your dear son is in
America, and you cannot see him whenever you want,
do you or do you not get solace by looking at his
photograph? You do know that the photo IS NOT YOUR
SON, but only a piece of paper with various tones of
grey, but it reminds you of your beloved boy and his
great love for you. So also the idols in temples are to
remind the devotees of the ideal, the Supreme. Since
the human mind cannot conceive of a formless
Supreme, God is conceived of in the form as
represented by an idol. To the earnest devotee, the idol
appears as a living embodiment of his Lord, and he
goes into ecstasy at its sight. It is, however, necessary
to remember that the idol is NOT God, but represents
God."
“Why is it, Swamiji, that as in Christianity or Islam, a
particular day of the week is not earmarked in Hinduism
for temple worship?"
At this question, Swamiji drew himself up, straightened
and roared at the top of His voice; “HINDUISM IS NOT
A PART TIME RELIGION." He then explained at length
that aspiration to associate with divinity cannot be
restricted to any particular time." Have you heard of the
school boy who said that `the earth is round on Sundays
and flat on other days'? So also, a man cannot be made
to be divine on Sundays and devilish on all other days.
(Maybe, most of us are that way!)
So constant practice, frequent association with the good
etc., are needed. The temple visits and worship should
elevate the mind of the seeker and help him to keep his
mind in a higher plane. He should also take other steps
to continue the purification of the mind at all times of the
day, at home, in the office, at the market place."
"What is a pure mind, Swamiji?"
"A pure mind is one which is calm, free from agitations.
Agitations are caused mainly by our likes and dislikes
and desires. Desires spell disaster, fulfilled or frustrated.
Mahatma Gandhi was very fond of the `Sthitha Pragna'
portion of the second chapter of the Bhagawad Geeta, in
which the causes and consequences of desire are most
graphically described. It is the ladder of fall:
"When a man thinks of objects, attachments for them
arise; from attachment, desire is born; from desire
(unfulfilled) arises anger; from anger comes delusion;
from delusion loss of memory, the destruction of
discrimination; from destruction of discrimination he
perishes."
Imagination is more important than
knowledge.
- Albert Einstein

Lasting change happens when people see for themselves that a different way of life is more fulfilling than
their present one. - Eknath Easwaran
Swamiji added: “The Lord also points out then the three
great entrances to hell are lust, anger and greed."
One in the audience asked: "I have read a good deal
Swamiji, I also have convictions. Yet, to put these values
in practice is my problem."
Swamiji "This was exactly Arjuna's problem. The Lord
advised him, Recognise your real enemies. They are
desire and anger, born of passionate nature, all
devouring and sinful'. Knowing your enemies will enable
you to destroy them. Knowing your weaknesses, you will
make efforts to discard them. Once you locate a dead
rat in your wardrobe, that was emitting foul odour, you
will promptly pick it up by the tail and throw it as far
away as possible."
"Our sastras have laid down a clear cut procedure. The
three - fold practice consists of Sravana, Manana and
Nidhidhyasana - Hearing is not in one-ear-out-the other,
`It is attentive listening to discourses on our great
scriptures (including reading them), contemplating on
the ideas contained therein, and lastly meditation. Many
people come and tell me that they have gone through
the Geeta many times. I tell them `Let the Geeta go
through you once at least. It will do you more good.' Not
just hearing or reading but absorption of the great ideas
contained therein, assimilating them, and living those
values will alone produce a radiance in the life of an indi-
vidual. Proper understanding and correct attitudes are
important. For example, we often meet the allegation
that Hinduism is an `out-of-the world religion' meant only
for the recluse. The spirit of Hinduism is not understood
by those who say this. Wealth is not taboo for the
seeker, but the constant craving for wealth IS. Property
is not prohibited, but one is enjoined to use it in the
service of society.
The vedantic concept of renunciation has nothing to do
with have or have-not, in a physical sense; it means the
attitude of non-attachment. The classical example of our
ancient lore is that of Emperor Janaka, living in the
luxury of a palace, but still considered such a great saint
and sage that great aspirants went to him for guidance.
If you ask me `how to start', my answer is `Just start'.
When? Now~
Today is the best day. A better day will not come.
The greatest master who lived and worked for the cause
of religion in India, Adi Sankara, has laid down the pre-
scription:
"Bhagawad Geeta and Vishnu Sahasranama are to be
chanted; always the form of the Lord of Lakshmi is to be
meditated upon. The mind is to be led towards the
company of the good. Wealth is to be shared with the
needy.
Now, many people wait for retirement to take to religion.
They will never take to it, because they will have new
problems in the way.
"There goes the lunch time bell. All of you please have
prasad at the annakshetra before you go."
Hari om! Hari Om!! Hari Om!!!
You will receive a body
You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire
period for this time around.
You will learn lessons
You are enrolled in a full time informal school called life.
Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to
learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them
irrelevant and stupid.
There are no mistakes only lessons
Growth is a process of trial & error and experimentation.
The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the
process as the experiment that ultimately "works".
A lesson is repeated until learned
A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until
you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can
then go on to the next lesson (in that series). You are
going through many lesson "series" at the same time.
Learning lessons does not end
There is no part of life that does not contain lessons. If
you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.
"There" is no better than "here"
When you're "there" has become a "here", you will
simply obtain another "there" that will, again, look better
than "here".
Others are merely mirrors of you
You cannot love or hate something about another
person unless it reflects to you something you love or
hate about yourself.
What you make of your life is up to you
You have all the tools and resources you need. What
you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
Your answers lie within
The answers to life's questions lie inside of you. All you
need to do is. look, listen, and trust.
THE CHALLENGE IS TO KEEP IN MIND ALL OF THE
ABOVE!

FIX THE INDIAN AND INDIA IS FIXED - this is the
motto with which Chinmaya Mission has launched this
book. The book says if each Indian is transformed then
the whole nation, INDIA is transformed. The main focus
of the book is the individual. According to the authors,
for transformation
to happen in the
individual, he
needs to improve
in 7 wellness
aspects, viz.,
Patriotic Transfor-
mation, Physical
Transformation,
Emotional Trans-
formation, Intel-
lectual Transfor-
mation, Cultural
Transformation,
Spiritual Transformation and developing an Universal
Outlook. If these are improved then he can lead a life
which is more meaningful and contributory to the
society.
The book starts off with messages from the President
and the Prime Minister of India. The foreword has been
co-written by Swami Swatmananda and Swami
Chidrupananda who are the Directors of the All India
Chinmaya Yuva Kendra.
The book was launched as part of the birth centenary
celebrations of Swami Chinmayananda, founder of
Chinmaya Mission.
The best part of this book is that all the seven aspects of
transformation which seem
quite redundant are brought
out beautifully in the form of
stories. The stories are
highly realistic and this
increases the effectiveness
of the message put across.
The story kicks off with an
exhibition organised at the
Andheri Sports Complex
where a character THE
ONE who is destined to
transform India would be
arriving. Later as the
chapter progresses the
suspense is revealed subtly and the core idea of the
book takes charge from there. The book is very similar
to a novel in presentation but much more effective and
educative than the usual novels. The arrangement of
chapters and the usage of language are deliberated
upon carefully. Also a word of praise to the authors for
their innovative idea of inserting quotes, snippets and
one liners. Reading these alone adds value to the
reader. The only drawback of the book is that it would
take time for the reader to absorb some concepts
explained in the book save otherwise this book is
definitely much more than a onetime read. But the
intention of the authors in writing it is much bigger, they
want the book to not only be read and enjoyed alone but
it should make the reader think, act and TRANSFORM
himself.
